Xeon Processor X5260 is a server CPU based on thr 45nm, Wolfdale architecture. It's therefore related to the Core 2 Duo Series. It offers 2 Cores, each clocked at 3.33GHz and 6MB of L2 Cache. Most of the architectural features are enabled - including the low power features. Both its performance and price are high and so gamers are still better of getting any Core 2 Duo, over this CPU which is not meant for gaming purposes.
